Thought of the Day... You take time to learn technical terms about electricity. Why dont you do as much for theology? Why do you never read the great writings on the subject, but take your information from the secular experts who have picked it up as inaccurately as you? Why dont you learn the facts in this field as honestly as your own field? Why do you accept mildewed old heresies as the language of the church, when any handbook on church history will tell you where they came from? Why do you balk at the doctrine of the Trinity - God the three in One - yet meekly acquiesce when Einstein tells you E=mc2? What makes you suppose that the expression God ordains is narrow and bigoted, while your own expression, Science demands is taken as an objective statement of fact? You would be ashamed to know as little about internal combustion as you know about Christian beliefs. I admit, you can practice Christianity without knowing much theology, just as you can drive a car without knowing much about internal combustion. But when something breaks down in the car, you go humbly to the man who understands the works; whereas if something goes wrong with religion, you merely throw the works away and tell the theologian he is a liar. Dorothy L. Sayers
